BADLY INJURED.

One or Two Residences Dem olished and
Many Badly Dsmsged-A Flying
Board Driven Through the Side OF
Residence - Count ess Outhouses In
Ruins, and Trees Frustrated in Every
Direction.
EAToNToN, GA, Feb. Ozone OF the
most destructive cyclones that has visited
EatOnton in several years struck the edge
Of the place this evening about $3.50
O'Clock. 1t came from a southwesterly
direction, moving to the northeast. 1t
passed directly over the city, but high in
the air. AS far as can be learned of the
damage done in and around the city 1t is
about az follows:
Col. B. F. Adams residence was very
badly damaged. and the family barely es-
capped with their lives. His loss is very
heavy.
Willis Marshall, an old and respected
colored blacksmith, was killed In MS
shop by timbers falling on him, crushing
his skull and killing him instantly.
The male academy was lifted from It's
foundation and is ruined. Fortunately
there was no one In it.
j. NJ. Johnson's dwelling is badly dam
aged, and all the outhous9s were blown
TO pieces. A. o. Mosely's residence was
| also badly damaged, and the outhouses
were blown down.
The greatest sufferer yet heard OF is
b. /. Paschall. His dwelling and every
cabin on his plantation are totally de-
stroyed, but no lives were lost.
The beautiful grove around Mrs. j.
| Wingfeld's is completely ruined, nearly
every tree being felled to the ground.
The dwelling was not damaged at all.
The kitchen of w. NJ. tennis was
blown down.
A little damage was done to the Meth
odist parsonage.
Nearly every house in western and
northern Eat0nton suffered more or less.
The cyclone passed IN nearly the same
path as the one of 1884.
| 1t is impossible to estimate yet the
amount of damage done, but 1t is very
| great.
| Col. Adams and several more OF the
sufferers, 1t is stated, have cyclone poll
cies sufficient to cover their losses.
Richard Trippe (colored), on John
| Wrights plantation, had his arm dislo-
Gated by falling timber, and Beverly
Harris was severely injured.
A large piece of timber from Col.
| Adams house was blown through u. e..
| Aliens residence, slightly damaging it.
In the northern part OF town fencing and
| shade trees are totally destroyed. Nearly
all the property that was damaged in the
storm OF 1884 was again damaged to-day.

COLUMBUS EXTENSION.
The City Thoroughly Worked up on
the Question.

COLUMBUS, GA, Feb. 26.-The citizens
of Columbus and vicinity are strongly
agitated in regard to the proposed extern
sion of the city limits, which will take in
what is known as "the Northern Liber-
ties" The territory to be incorporated
has about 5000 population and taxable
property of between $4,000 aud 100000.
Many lengthy articles have appeared in
the daily papers discussing both sides OF
the question, and while 1t is generally ad-
mitted that it will cost the city proper
something over $4,000 annually to give
the annexed territory police, gas light,
school facilities, fire protection. good
streets and other necessary adjuncts, it
will eventually benefit the city at
large. Many citizens oppose the extern
sion on the ground that the trainers of the
bill demand too much, while there are
many parts of the city which have no gas
light or fire protection, Notwithstanding
tue fact that they have paid faxes for the
past fifty years. Others believe the time
for the city to spread out has come, and
will vote accordingly at the election next
week March y.

GENERAL RAILWAY NEWS.
Matters OF Money and Management
About Various Lines.

Mr.. &. w. Chears has been appointed
District Passenger Agent of the Western
Railway OF Alabama, and the Atlanta
and West Point railroad, with mead
quarters in Atlanta.
The South-bound mail train on the Gen.
tral railroad, due here at 9 O'Clock yester-
day, was delayed several hours by dis.
a6led freight. The north-bOund last mail
on the Savannah, Florida and Western
was also behind time.
There seems to have been some doubt
about the statement made in the MORN
ING NEWS day or two ago that the Gen.
trail railroad is about TO extend the
columbus and Rome road to Atlanta.
Very little has been said about tue pro-
posed extension, and it was not generally
known that IL was contemplated. The
information given by the MORNING NEW S
tnat the road is to be extended and that a
corps OF engineers will be put in the field
at once is authoritative.

From Admission to Columbus.

A dispatch from Admission, Ala, says:
"A meeting OF interested parties Will be
held in this city in few days to perfect
arrangements for building a road from
Admission to Columbus, Ca, via West
Point. 1t is only seventy-ive miles from
here to West Point. Between West Point
and Columbus the road will follow the
river, which is the finest water power IN
the South. There is fall OF $50 feet be-
tween West Point and Columbus,
distance of thirty miles. This splendid
water power has been donated
already toward building the road by the
parties who control it. The country be-
tween Admission and West Point will
justify the building Of the road to say
nothing of the benefits to be derived from
the mills along the CbattahOOchee river
between West Point and Columbus. Full
particulars will be given In lew days"
The building of railroad from West
Point to Columbus along the river is an
old subject, but the AnnIston attachment
is new feature. and whether it amounts
TO anything remains to be seen.
